Bishop | By Bandit9

Daryl Villanueva from Bandit9 has rolled out another supreme custom motorcycle from his workshop in Beijing, China. His latest masterpiece is the custom built "Bishop", a minimalist ride based on a Honda Supersport. It features an high-grade steel unibody that contrasts beautifully with the wood burl side panels, a custom gas cap, a sand-casted swingarm, aluminum indicators and custom brake light. The bespoke "Bishop” is limited to nine units only. watch the video
